Iād like to thank the new University of Guelph students for being incredibly predictable. One day of students in #Guelph and the water in the public water fountain has been soaped.
Sticking with tradition!
With the death of Tweetdeck today, which was a poor replacement for Hootsuite which I stopped using earlier this year when the price became prohibitive, I am pretty much completely done with Twitter.
The most difficult part of this is losing my local community online. #Guelph residents have/had a very active community on Twitter. I built a huge network of people, made a career out of that, and lifelong friends.
I love being here and meeting new people. But I miss my local community.
DIYode Community Workshop is having a big moving/reopening party on August 19th and I won't be able to make it so you have to go have fun in my place.

So, things are bad, I need an extraction. I will not survive a summer in this attic apartment with the levels of smoke and heat this summer is gonna produce.
I am basically looking for someone to "foster" me for a few months (deets in thread) in either the #easternOntario or #guelph areas. A kind of hippie room & board situation. Access to healthy food, and loving human contact.

Summer Reading Club starts this week at Guelph Public Library! https://www.guelphpl.ca/.../summer-reading-club.aspx...
What line will you be working on completing over the next two and a half months?
I'm reading Stephen King's The Dark Tower VII: The Dark Tower, so when I finish it I need to decide if it counts as Fantasy or as a Book over 500 pages.

Experience with autism, chronic illness, medical CPTSD would be super helpful.
Need help with both lining up immediate mundane survival supports. (Including help making phone calls to places I can't access via email) as well as big picture planning and logistics to get me moved to #Guelph and set up in something healthier and more sustainable.
Hit me with questions, and please boost or share with anyone that might be interested. Thx! š

It was a cold morning in #Guelph Ontario Canada and there was frost on the ground. You could feel the crunch of the fallen leaves underfoot. A lovely, rustic wooden bench was waiting for you to relax and enjoy this wondrous, tranquil #autumn scene.

My favorite trail to walk in #Guelph #Ontario Canada is the #SpeedRiverTrail which goes through #Niska woods and along the #SpeedRiver. The Eastern White #Cedar #trees with the reddish bark, line the trail in some areas and provide not only a canopy along the path but wonderful #winter interest and contrast!

I am starting to gather people and resources, so if you are interested either in helping build something locally in #Guelph or if you want to be part of the planning so you can create something in your area let me know. We'll have a WhatsApp group to discuss, and a WordPress website to help organize ourselves and our plans. Plus I invite lots of tooter-traffic on the #convalescentCommunities
tag.
I wanna hear your ideas, your dreams, your links of other cool stuff happening.

What they have going on in Junction Village Guelph is what I would like to model it after, except we need the soft place to land of a core recovery house to start with, then go back to your life or find a cohort to build a co-living home within the area (depending on whether you needed a break or a new living arrangement).

So, the results of this survey are interesting. A surprising number of people just want to live in a healthier recuperative environment, period.
I think there is good potential for a house with a mix of permanent residents and more short term visits.
Am gonna try and build something in #Guelph so doing a call out for anyone who might be interested.
Also looking for help, local or remote. More incoming on the tag:

It was #CedarWaxwing heaven with the #cherries in abundance on the Sargent Cherry trees in #Guelph #Ontario Canada. The #Waxwings were eating them like they were candy and gulping them down like someone was going to take it from them!
